If we have recently acquired our
first Mac, and we come from the Windows world, we are most likely wondering
about the location of certain features that were well defined in the
Microsoft operating system but that we cannot find in the Apple OS, or
we do not know how to replace them, if they do not exist in the apple
environment.
The first thing we have to think
about is that OS X is not Windows, things
on Mac are done in a similar way, but not exactly the same. An example of
this is the remote desktop , a feature that in
Windows, in addition to being free, is visible and can be used with little
effort. On the other hand, on Mac the official remote desktop
application, called Apple Remote Desktop, must be
purchased separately, but in return it offers dozens of features for managing
networks and computers.
However, Apple
Remote Desktop is not the only option available, since
there are some alternatives that are also very efficient, and although they do
not offer as many functionalities as Apple's desktop app, for a user who only
wants to access a computer remotely to Using their resources or the
information they contain is an excellent option with which we can also save
some money.
Apple Remote Desktop
Apple
Remote Desktop is neither more nor less than the official
remote desktop application of OS X, one of the most
complete tools to connect to computers remotely from the Mac, and through this
application we can easily manage resources and tasks
of all computers that are on the same network, it also
offers us the possibility of being able to automate some tasks.
Some of the key
features of Apple Remote Desktop are the possibility,
among dozens of functionalities, to remotely drag and drop, create smart lists
of devices and design task templates, an option more than useful when many
computers are connected on the same network However, one of the most
interesting is the one that does not allow Mac system updates to
be done on all Apple computers that are on the network from a
single computer, a very interesting feature that can
save us a lot of time.
Unfortunately Apple
Remote Desktop is not a free application, that is why at this point
we will find some alternatives to use as a Mac remote desktop
application, which although they do not offer the amount of
functions that the Apple app does, the truth is that they are more than
adequate for all types of users, especially if we only need remote access
to a computer to use its resources.
